According to the passage, the lava which erupts onto the Pacific Ocean floor ----.
Mount Everest is the highest mountain on Earth
above sea level, but it is not the world's tallest. That
honour goes to the Hawaiian volcano Mauna Kea.
When measured from its base on the Pacific Ocean
floor, it is about 1,000 metres taller than Mount
Everest. Mauna Kea is part of a 5,600-kilometre-long
chain of volcanoes stretching westward from the
main Hawaiian island. This volcanic chain is formed
by small convection streams called “hot spots”, just
below the Earth's crust, where magma rises from the
hotter parts of the mantle, the region between the
crust and the core of the earth. These hot spots melt
sections of the tectonic plates moving above them,
causing magma and bits of the molten plate to erupt
onto the sea floor. Over time, the lava accumulates,
forming a mountain that rises above sea level. The
moving tectonic plates carry the newly-formed
mountain away from its original location, as newer
volcanoes continue to form in the same spot.
